Former adult film actress Mia Khalifa placed a large bet on Spain winning the World Cup and won 1.6 million dollars (about 2.3 billion won).

The UK's "The Sun" reported on the 20th (Korean time) that "Khalifa made huge profits by betting on Spain, which defeated Argentina in the World Cup final to claim victory."

According to reports, Khalifa bet 1 million dollars (1.5 billion won) not on the outcome within regular time (90 minutes), but on Spain's ultimate victory (winning the trophy). At the time, Spain's winning odds were 1.65 times. Spain secured a 1-0 victory thanks to Ferran Torres' decisive goal in extra time, and Khalifa received the final prize money of 1.6 million dollars.

Afterwards, Khalifa posted photos of herself watching the final live in Newark, New Jersey, along with details of her winnings on Instagram. She said, "I believed it and won big," and added, "Although I have not a single drop of Spanish blood in me, I am so proud that my homeland Spain won."

Khalifa, who was born in Lebanon, openly expressed her dislike for Argentina throughout this tournament. Earlier, she posted videos supporting France or Spain, which would face Lionel Messi's Argentina from the semi-finals onward, drawing backlash from South American football fans.

At that time, she wrote on her post, "No matter what happens today, I was ready to cheer against Argentina," wishing for Argentina's defeat.

Meanwhile, in the 2026 FIFA North America World Cup final between Argentina and Spain held at New York/New Jersey Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, USA on the 20th, Spain drew 0-0 after 90 minutes of regular time before Ferran Torres scored the decisive goal in the first minute of extra time, securing a 1-0 victory. With this win, Spain lifted its second World Cup trophy in history for the first time since the 2010 South Africa tournament, 16 years later.

Spain conceded only one goal throughout all matches in this tournament, setting a new record for the fewest goals conceded by a champion. Additionally, with an undefeated record of 8 matches (7 wins, 1 draw) and an unprecedented streak of 38 consecutive A-match games without defeat, they proved the overwhelming power of the "Invincible Fleet."
